Dear Editor,
As voters head to polling stations on May 11, the single most important question uppermost in their minds would be one of trust-which of the presidential candidates they can trust to take this country forward for the next five years.
Can voters put the fate of this nation into the hands of David Granger who has little if any political experience and who spent almost all his professional life in the military?
Or would they vote instead for a political heavyweight who spent his entire life in the PPP and who took over from the iconic Cheddi Jagan as General Secretary?
The clear and logical choice is to vote for Donald Ramotar who apart from his strong political credentials is also known for his humility and integrity.
Like Dr. Cheddi Jagan with whom he worked closely with for many decades and who no doubt influenced and shaped his character and world view, he is a true man of the people-warm, compassionate, pro-people and caring.
Those of us who know him and had the opportunity to work with him can attest to his noble character and his ability to connect with people from all races, religion or political persuasion.
I take this opportunity to call on all Guyanese to vote for Donald Ramotar and his PPP/C List which is by far a superior List in terms of experience, competence, integrity, balance and trust.
Too much is at stake. We cannot gamble with our future.
As we celebrate and observe Mother’s Day today, let us reflect on the great difference our vote would make on May 11 in terms of the realisation of a better Guyana for all mothers, their children, grandchildren and the children to come.
We owe it to ourselves and the entire Guyana that we use our ballot to ensure that this nation continues along that path of peace, progress and prosperity that we have been experiencing over the past twenty three years.
A Happy Mother’s Day to all our mothers!
Yours faithfully,
Hydar Ally
